Now that is some thick pea soup! I once landed at KFRG with very low viz. Fog was so thick that I had to tailgate a Citation for FIDO just to see where I was taxiing. BTW...FIDO is not my pet doggy....it's an old military abbreviation for(Fog, Intensive Dispersal Of). Over & Out!

You're right about the moving display. British Airways had one of those installed on their L-1011's. If I remember right, it displayed the actual position of the aircraft on the runway. I thought by now the industry would be using GPS for precision landing and taxiing. I've kind of lost touch since I've retired from Lockheed.

Gordon Bennett! The taxi director didn't have wands! Looking out the window is too scary. I'd love to see the instruments. Maybe a radar display or perhaps an ACLS/needles gage. Did like the comment about the 747 crew: They are higher than we are, maybe they can see more. (paraphrased)

That's another thing to like about FA- international commentary.And thanks to Google translate: Sensational. It seemed I was in the pulpit. The visibility of the clouds and beneath them was little, but I think enough experienced pilots.

It's amazing how well CAT IIIB works just like the simulator. The wind normally has to be zero to provide such weather conditions. For lack of better terminology, they are "quiet" approaches. I've made several in 767s at Zurich among other places.
